And arguably the greatest golfer of all time, Tiger Woods, wants in on the April Fools’ trickery.
Woods underwent surgery to repair a ruptured left Achilles tendon three weeks ago in March.
But the 15-time major champion’s career is so storied, and so full of perseverance — he famously won the 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines despite multiple serious leg injuries — that fans could be led to believe almost anything about his latest recovery.
And so, on April Fools’, Tiger preyed.
“I can’t believe I am saying this, but a few weeks after rupturing my left Achilles, the sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber plus the explosive lifts my doctors and trainers have me ready to play the Masters next week! Can’t wait! See y’all on the course,” Woods posted on X on Tuesday.
The post raised eyebrows until the follow-up six minutes later.
“P.S. April Fools my Achilles is still a mess :),”
And so we can all stand down. It still appears that Woods will not be playing the first major of the season at Augusta National, after all.
